Research Findings
Conclusion
 Polyhydroxybutyrates (PHBs) are members from family of
polyesters known as Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs).
 Accumulated in intracellular granules by Gram-positive and
Gram-negative microorganisms.
 PHB are produced when there is excess carbon source with the
limitation of one of the essential nutrients.
 Also known as Biopolymers as they are produced from
microorganisms.
 They are thermoplastic polymers and are totally biodegradable.

• Many different types of PHAs are available and PHB is the
most common one
• Empirical formula - [C4H6O2]n
• Structural formula for the linear chain of PHB
• PHB was discovered in 1925 by French
scientist Maurice Lemoigne.
• Found that PHB as the intracellular inclusions
in many bacteria.
• In 1982, the Imperial Chemical Industry in
England announced product development
program of this biopolymer. A pilot production
of 2 tonnes of PHB was made in 1991.

It consists of three enzymes
 β-ketoacyl-CoA thiolase (phb A)
 NADPH dependent Acetoacetyl-CoA dehydrogenase (phb
B)
 P(3HB) polymerase (phb C)
Huisman et al., 1989
Maurice Lemoigne (1926)
 Polyhydroxybutyrates (PHBs) are polymers that bacteria produce under
conditions of low concentrations of important nutrients (typically nitrogen,
but sometimes oxygen) and high concentrations of carbon sources.
 This process occurs because the excess carbon leads to bacteria creating
carbon reserves (PHAs) to save for a time with more plentiful nutrients in
which they need energy to carry out regular functions.
 Bacteria store PHBs in granules for later use.
 These polymers are accumulated intracellularly under conditions of
nutrient stress and act as a carbon and energy reserve.
• Poly-β-hydroxybutyrate (PHB) is synthesized as an
intracellular storage material and accumulates as distinct white
granules during unbalanced growth in the cell, these are
clearly visible in the cytoplasm of the cell.
• Many bacteria including those in the soil, are capable of PHB
production and breakdown.
